Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there!
Nick's Father's Day probably left a little to be desired... The 3 AM feeding was terrible last night and Josiah was super cranky afterwards-- I had a meltdown because I was so tired so Nick took the baby downstairs and took over. He woke me up to pump a few times but let me sleep in until 8:30ish... it was fantastic (for me at least.) While I was sleeping Nick took care of feedings, washed bottles, sorted laundry... I told him that if he could lactate he wouldn't even need me around. :)
We went to church and Josiah was very popular. It was so neat to talk to so many people who had been praying for him.
After church we came home and Nick's parents came over-- and brought Strom (our dog) who LOVES Josiah. Josiah seems to like Strom too. Grandpa Ken held Josiah for the first time... Josiah really seemed comfortable with him.
Josiah has had a bunch of full feedings today, leading up to believe that he won't be on the tube for much longer. That's pretty exciting for us. The tube is the last thing that needs to come out before Josiah is just totally a "typical" kid. (I almost used the word "normal" but our social worker Vivian told us not to refer to our children as abnormal. :)
(BTW- I am aware that I over use smiley faces... :)
Okay, I have to go change a diaper-- it's Father's Day so I don't feel right "passing the butt" to Nick. I will download some pics later.
